It’s October 18th in Vancouver, and a treat to see roses blooming across the street from this vibrant Fall foliage. #fall #autumn #fallcolours #fallcolors kits #Kitsilano #Vancouver bccanada #orange #red #yellow #naturelovers #nature #leaves #leaveschangingcolors #traveldeeper #WorldCaptures #BeautifulDestinations #PassionPassport #WorldPlaces #TravelStoke #BBCTravel #TravelAwesome #DarlingWeekend #ForbesTravelGuide #MeetTheWorld #awesupply #tlpicks #mapleleaf #rose #roses Oh, Canada! The sunny October skies here in Vancouver are brilliant, and so are all these Fall colours. As you’ll see in the last couple of pics, the days are so mild that at least one rhododendron has been lulled into another round of blossoms. #fall #autumn #fallcolours #fallcolors kits #Kitsilano #Vancouver bccanada #rhododendron #rhodo #orange #red #yellow #naturelovers #nature #leaves #leaveschangingcolors #traveldeeper #WorldCaptures #BeautifulDestinations #PassionPassport #WorldPlaces #TravelStoke #BBCTravel #TravelAwesome #DarlingWeekend #ForbesTravelGuide #MeetTheWorld #awesupply #tlpicks #mapleleaf In the neighbourhood - an assortment of beautiful Fall colours #fall #autumn #fallcolours #fallcolors kits #Kitsilano #Vancouver bccanada #naturelovers #nature #leaves #leaveschangingcolors #traveldeeper #WorldCaptures #BeautifulDestinations #PassionPassport #WorldPlaces #TravelStoke #BBCTravel #TravelAwesome #DarlingWeekend #ForbesTravelGuide #MeetTheWorld #awesupply #tlpicks #TLPicks ... and exhale.
